Jicaro Island Ecolodge

GRANADA ISLETAS, NICARAGUA

“Beware: if you go here you will never want to leave. This tiny island boutique absolutely exceeded all of our expectations. Excellent service from when we arrived- cool towels and refreshments. The casitas made us feel right at home- no air conditioning? No worries! The fans and island breeze kept us comfortable the entire time. A wonderful place to just relax or be adventurous and explore- definitely look into tours, like the fabulous boat tours or zip line. Or just make your own tour with the kayaks made available to guests. Either way, your time here will be some of the most fun and relaxing time you’ve ever had- you’ll want to stay forever.”

Great for
The private island feel and romantic casitas make this a great place for honeymoons. It is also wonderful for getting away from all the noise and lights of the big city- rest, relax and enjoy the natural side of luxurious travel.

With whom
Best shared with your partner or a close friend.

Memorable moment
One night we took dinner on the floating dock- it was absolutely beautiful to be surrounded by this magnificent area during sunset. And like every meal here, that dinner was fantastic.

Best time to go
Although the Jicaro website boasts that the Green Season (May- October) is a great time to visit due to greener vegetation, more animals and less people - this is in fact the rainy season. If you’re not in to rain (and don’t mind a couple more people on your tours) then the sunny, high season is for you: November through April.
